Using your printer
Loading paper
The LC24-300 Colour can print on a variety of paper
types, as explained below:
Cut sheet paper
The LC24-300 Colour can use single sheets of paper (cut
sheets) or letterheaded stationery. Use the friction feed or
the optional SF-1ODWautomatic sheet feeder.
Fanfald paper
It can also accept fanfold (continuous) computer statio-
nery. Fanfold stationery has the sheets joined together,
with perforations between sheets, and holes (“sprocket
holes”) along each edge to help the printer grip the
paper. You should not print too close to the sprocket
holes. Otherwise, you run the risk of jamming the paper
in the printer.
Multi-part forms
You can print continuous multi-part forms which are
either carbon backed or pressure-sensitive carbonless
(NCR), with up to five copies (including the top copy). If
you use multi-part forms, we suggest that you feed them
through the bottom paper feed slot, as this will help to
prevent premature separation of the forms. There
should be a difference in thickness of not more than
0.05mm between the side edges.
